This racket is a fart, and you cheat! You're a cheating bitch!

you didn't see the WVU/LSU game. they started playing for overtime, it seemed, at the 8 minute mark. only they weren't tied. it was some of the crappiest football i've ever watched between two "top 25" teams

If you take a look back at some of the Michigan-UConn preview material, there is a good reminder of just how remarkable that is. When Rodriguez was at WVU, WVU didn't just beat UConn, they destroyed them.

I was thinking the same thing. Look at WVU's stats all season, and you see an offense that cannot move the ball outside of Devine. Let's see how the Orangemen fare against a slightly better Cincy team.

Slightly better Cincy team? How do you figure? Schedules are comparable, but the only common opponent Cincy lost to by 8 and WVU beat by 2 TDs.

As far as Syracuse, it's still a great win for Syracuse to beat WVU. As of a year or two ago, there was still no way they'd win that game. The way they beat WVU was not crappy football like was played last night. Their win was clean and convincing on the defensive side. They've still got some growing issues on offense as they switch back to a more traditional system, but that's not the side of the ball winning them games so far.

No kidding. WVU has just been pretty much terrible all season. This is a WVU team that lost to Syracuse and should have lost to a terrible Marshall team earlier this year. That was the game where the Marshall kicker missed the FG in overtime (it went right over the goal post).

Really? I don't think many people who have paid much attention to WVU the last several years are particularly surprised by it. Stewart was handed a boatload of talent and did very little with it and then proceeded to fail to fill in much talent behind those players. Devine and Sanders, as freshmen under Rodriguez, were far more productive players than they are as seniors under Stewart. That really says something.

Stewart is by far a better man than Rich Rod. And Stewart by far has better intentions than Rich Rod. BUT Rod is WAY MORE OF A COACH. I never thought I'd say it but if he gets fired from Michigan and makes a public apology, I'd take him back. It'll never happen but I'm just saying.

Uh, guys? I think if RR gets fired from UM he's not looking to return to WVU, 'kay?
